(From the City of Joplin)On Tuesday, March 3, work will begin on improvements to Zora Street between Duquesne Road/Hall Street and MO Highway 249. During the first phase of this project, Zora Street between Duquesne Road and MO-249 will be fully closed to through traffic.
MO-249 truck traffic accessing the Joplin/Webb City Industrial Park will be detoured via Newman Road to Duquesne Road/Hall Street, or via Hwy 171 to Madison Street. Traffic not accessing the industrial park will be detoured via Newman Road and continue to Range Line Road.
Local access to homes and businesses along Zora Street will be maintained throughout this project.
Closures and traffic patterns will change as the project progresses. Please watch for future updates. The project is anticipated to be completed this fall.
The City appreciates the public’s patience and understanding as this intersection is made safer and more efficient for traffic flow in this area. This $2.8 million project is funded by the Capital Improvement Sales Tax, which was approved by voters in 2014. The contractor is Emery Sapp and Sons, Inc.
